EXTRATERRESTRIAL VISITATIONS

True Accounts of Contact

By Preston Dennett

Preston Dennett’s books are known for their cutting-edge original research.Dennett moves out of the armchair and into the field. ExtraterrestrialVisitations continues his fascinating firsthand explorations into the UFOphenomenon.

What makes this book different from the hundreds of other UFO books?First, while most UFO books are re-hashes of old cases, ExtraterrestrialVisitations contains ten brand new original firsthand cases, each told in thewitnesses’ own words. Secondly, these are the most extensive and extremetypes of cases, each one involving missing time, a face-to-face encounter oran onboard experience. Thirdly, eighty percent of the cases in the book arefrom fully conscious memories, with hypnotic regression playing only aminor role. And finally, many of the cases involve shocking andcontroversial information that is rarely reported in the UFO literature,including healing cases, underground bases, praying-mantis type ETs,human-looking aliens, extraterrestrial prophecies and much more.Inside this book, you will read about the following exciting cases:

--four teen-age boys encounter a glowing egg-shaped UFO on a remotecountry road. At one point, they experience a period of missing time, witheach having different recall of the event.

--a young girl encounters a metallic UFO which follows her down the street.Later, her own child began to report encounters, and the witness herselfrealized that she too was an abductee.

--a gentleman sees a group of UFOs along with hundreds of others. Later,on his way home, he is followed by one of the UFOs which strikes him witha beam of light, beginning an ordeal that would change the course of his life.

--a woman is terrorized by gray-type aliens until she takes charge of herencounters, and transforms them into fully conscious, positive spiritualexperiences during which she is taught about her past lives, how to healothers and much more.

--a middle-aged couple have a lifelong series of contacts with friendlyhumanlike ETs, culminating in an encounter in Sedona, Arizona duringwhich they were invited onboard a craft and given much information aboutthe ETs. Later, the ETs returned to heal one of the witnesses.

--a woman has a series of encounters with gray/human-looking ETs,including an incredible encounter during which she was rescued by the ETsfollowing a motorcycle accident on a lonely mountain road.

--a teen-age boy is abducted in full view of his mother and brother. He istaken onboard for a period of six-hours where he undergoes many bizarreand rare procedures.

--a woman has a series of sightings when she suddenly begins to channel agray-type ET, revealing much information about the ETs and the future ofour planet.

--a man discovers that he was abducted twice as a child and taken into anunderground base by Praying-Mantis type ETs.

--a woman experiences a lifelong series of intense abductions. In one case,she and two friends are abducted together, taken onboard a craft where theyundergo an examination and other incredible procedures, making it one ofthe best multiple witness abductions on record.

Extraterrestrial Visitations moves beyond the typical abduction scenario andshows just how complex and varied contact with extraterrestrials truly is.The book contains 270 pages, an index and a bibliography.

Beyond UFO Abductions

(excerpted from Extraterrestrial Visitations)

By Preston Dennett

The UFO phenomenon is extraordinarily complex, however the main focusis undeniably face-to-face encounters or the onboard UFO experience. Still,when people think of these types of close encounters, they often assume thatthe experience is a terrifying event during which the unwilling victim is laidout on a table and examined by emotionless gray-type Ets. While I believethese types of encounters do happen, this is only a small part of the UFOexperience. In reality, people experience a much wider variety ofencounters. Contrary to popular opinion, onboard UFO experiences are notalways involuntary and terrifying. Many people experience encountersduring which they are actually helped or healed. There seems to be multiplereasons why people are contacted by aliens.

My book, Extraterrestrial Visitations: True Accounts of Contact(Llewellyn, 2001) focuses only on those types of encounters which involveconsiderable interaction between the witnesses and the UFO. Each caseinvolves either a face-to-face encounter, missing time or an onboardexperience. Although these cases are among the most extensive I have everinvestigated, at least half of them are not typical and move beyond thestandard abduction scenario.

The following case is a perfect example. Sherry Jamison(pseudonym) worked first as a real-estate agent, then later returned toschool, earned a degree and became a licensed therapist. She has beenmarried for many years and has a full-grown child. She is both humble anddignified, with a quick wit and a positive outlook on life. Looking at her,you would never guess that she has had many bizarre experiences withextraterrestrials.

Sherry’s first experience occurred when she was only eight. She livedwith her parents in rural New Jersey. One night in the early 1950s, Sherryawoke to find herself outside her home, standing in a nearby field. She hadno idea how she got there, but looking up, she saw a small, metallic, saucershapedcraft hovering above her. It instantly swooped down and sent downa beam of light directly on her. Says Sherry, “The craft was into a very bigcraft…but what happened was, it put its light on me. I remember runningalong the fence, trying to get away from it….I remember running along thefence, and this craft was chasing me. I was trying to duck down and thiscraft was chasing me….I was running and falling, running and falling.”

The next thing Sherry realized, the craft had struck her with a beam oflight and she was lifted aboard. “It was like a flashlight. It was a verystrong beam because I went right up into the craft. My sensation of fear leftme. I was so afraid when it was chasing me.”

At that point, Sherry remembered nothing but waking up the nextmorning. At first she thought it had been a strange dream, but she realizedthat she had a different outfit on then when she went to bed, and her clotheswere unexplainably dirty. Whatever had happened, it wasn’t a dream.

As she grew up, Sherry began to have bizarre nighttime experiences,half-remembered dreams and recollections of gray-type aliens standingaround her bed. She began to awaken with unusual marks and scars on hebody. Over a period of years, she slowly began to connect her experiences,and wondered if she was one of those people labeled as UFO contactees.Of course, this was no sudden revelation. She knew somethingstrange was going on, but extraterrestrials? It seemed too outlandish toeven consider.

Then in the 1960s, Sherry experienced an event which left no doubt inher mind that she was in contact with extraterrestrials. It remains one of thestrangest encounters I have ever investigated.

Sherry was driving alone in the middle of the night through theWatchung mountains of New Jersey when she lost control of her motorcycleand crashed. Because it was so late at night and the road was totallyisolated, there was no traffic at all. Sherry was totally alone.

Or so she thought.

Moments after the accident, Sherry was startled to see three strangefigures. She instantly recognized them as the figures she had seen before, inher bedroom at night. Says Sherry, “When I was driving on a motorcycleonce in the mountains, I had an experience – these same people appeared tome. They were like grays, more detailed, more white, not quite human. Iwould say like a body suit on a human figure, a white body suit, not a grayone, but maybe an off-white or a beige-gray.

“I was riding a bike and I slid my bike. I had bent the kick-standwhen I did. I didn’t hurt myself, but I had bent the kick-stand, and I couldn’tmove [it] to get the bike started. It was very dark. I didn’t see a mothershipor anything. But again, I call them aliens only now. I always didn’t knowwhat to call them. They were just my friends. There were two of them.They looked at me and silently picked up my motorcycle, took the bar andstraightened it out into a kick-stand again. I nodded and kicked it. It wasjust like, okay. I kicked it; we didn’t have electric starters at that time. Ikicked the motorcycle over and off I went.”

Sherry was astonished by the event. She was already shaken up fromthe accident, but the appearance of the figures took her totally by surprise.Says Sherry, “They were both right there. They were about a foot and a halfaway. One looked at me. They both looked at the one doing it. They wereboth like “grays” look, without clothes. They didn’t have any attire on oranything on. They looked like grays except they were more humanproportioned.Except they did have the dark eyes, but not as almond-shapedas that. It was the only think dark that appeared on them.“And I wish now I could have not been so worried and disturbed, orthat I could have paid more attention. But they weren’t threatening. Theyjust kind of nodded and went on their way….they looked almost luminous.So it was kind of strange. It was very strange.”

Although that was Sherry’s most intense face-to-face encounter, shecontinued to have a number of other close-up sightings of metallic craft.Sherry’s case is difficult to classify. Although she did experience anapparent missing-time abduction, she has also had an undeniably positiveencounter. She has no desire to be hypnotized, and is content to call thealiens her “friends.”

It took Sherry a long time to conclude that she was having encounterswith aliens because the figures looked almost human, the only realdifference being that their eyes were larger and darker than humans. Sherryis only one person of many who have moved beyond abductions.

Invited Aboard and Healed

In 1995, retired couple William and Rose Shelhart experienced amissing time encounter with a UFO outside of Sedona, Arizona. As theydrove along an isolated road, they saw a light following them. It appearedfirst ahead of behind them, as if playing a game of hide and seek. Suddenly,the light zoomed down out of the sky and landed into a field next to theircar. The couple promptly lost consciousness. Their next memory was ofstumbling into a hotel hours later.

Realizing they had experienced missing time, they underwenthypnosis during which they recalled that they weren’t abducted, but wereinvited onboard. Says Rose, “We weren’t kidnapped or abducted. Wevoluntarily boarded and we were welcome. We sought them out and weclimbed aboard, not being abducted as ‘in force.’

Rose was surprised at the appearance of the Ets. As she says, “Theylooked a lot more like people than some of those sketches do. A lot more.Their eyes were a little larger than any white person’s big eyes would be, butthey were just not enormous. They looked like they could pass for us if theywished. And they glowed with a blue aura which made me feel reassured,kind of on a mental level, that they were peaceful.”

Rose was also surprised by their clothing. “Something like a militaryoutfit, but not anything I have ever seen, and I’ve been in Europe and hereand so forth. But it would resemble that because they were all alike, butmore loose-fitting, but with belt. Uniforms, but it looked structured morelike, ‘I mean business.’

Another surprise was the lack of technological equipment on board.“Oh, there were all kinds of lights, but very few actual gizmos like we haveon any aircraft here. [It was] like they didn’t need them. It didn’t look likethey needed too many things. It’s like they almost had mind control to getthe thing going. But there were little lights, I guess for monitors and things.”Rose recalled other details regarding the Ets place of origin and theirintentions on Earth. William, however, was not a good hypnotic subject andwas unable to recall anything other than the craft landing and them beinginvited onboard.

William had experienced an earlier terrifying episode with missingtime, so he was somewhat relieved that their encounter turned out to bebenevolent.

Later, William and Rose had another encounter in their isolated homein Hawaii, which confirmed for them that the Ets were interested in theirwelfare. His first clue occurred upon waking up one morning and finding astrange mark on his body. Says William, “I woke one morning and I felt anitch on my right foot and discovered three puncture wounds in a perfecttriangle. They were in the process of scabbing over. I sleep on a waterbed,so nothing could have scratched it. My wife was the only witness. I feltsomething itching on my right ankle, and that’s when I looked. Becausethere’s no way possible in the night I could have done this, and that’s whenit happened.”

William was concerned by the marks because it was obvious that theywere not natural. But what could they be?

The answer came about two weeks later when the same incidentoccurred again, only this time William was awakened by an unexplainedbright beam of light entering into his bedroom. Says William, “I woke inthe middle of the night with a bright light coming in the back window. Itlasted about thirty to sixty seconds. I froze and could not get out of bed tolook outside. My backyard is a jungle of coconut trees and plants. As I livein the country, no car could get there in that time. When the light came inthe back window, it was just as bright as could be. I couldn’t believe it, andthere’s nothing in the back. There’s no way a car could have gotten in there.I mean, that’s what it looked like – somebody’s headlight shining right intothe window. I remember waking up and seeing that. This was just kind ofshocking thing.”

William’s first instinct was to get up and investigate. Strangely,however, he found himself paralyzed. Seconds later, he felt himself beingput to sleep. When morning came and he awoke, he immediatelyremembered the incident that had occurred in the middle of the night. Hecould only shake his head in wonder. Then he looked down to his right armand received an incredible shock. Says William, “My right wrist wasitching. The same thing happened – three puncture wounds in a perfecttriangle…I woke up and found those triangular pin-pricks on my right hand.And this was the hand I used when I carried mail. This was in constant use.And they were very fresh, because you could still see, they had just aboutscabbed over. I showed them to my wife immediately. I said, ‘My God!Look at this thing. It’s perfect. It’s a perfect triangle.”

William had worked for years as a postal worker and had developedsevere carpel-tunnel syndrome in his right wrist, as well as permanentdamage in his left ankle. However, immediately following the two aboveincidents, he noticed a dramatic improvement in his health. “I went and gotmyself a hot tub. I didn’t everything I could to take some of that pain away.And it wasn’t until after my incident that things started to get better. I justknow that I progressed and started to get better. Since thin, I have been 9percent cured….I am almost sixty-seven years old and I can hang off atwenty-foot ladder placing the weight on my right foot and paint with myright hand, day after day. I really don’t care if people doubt my explanation.I know what I feel.”

William and Rose are the perfect example of people who have movedbeyond the typical abduction scenario. Not only were they healed, but theyhave now become healers themselves. This pattern has turned up in othercases. Says Rose, “Both of us have become more and more interested inhelping people in alternative healing ways. Even William, he has thisenergy in his hands that he didn’t have before….now it’s like I feel this heatcoming out that’s really good. And people say they feel it out of me too.And I say, ‘Oh, where did I get this from.’ I have a lot of good result storiesfrom the neighborhood. But I’m grateful, because I think it [the UFOconnection] has a lot to do with it.”

Six Hours Onboard a UFO

In 1972, when he was 12 years old, Jack Stephens was abducted fromhis vehicle in full view of his mother and brother. He was lifted up inside abeam of light and taken inside an enormous craft the size of a small building.He experienced a six-hour-long encounter aboard the UFO before beingdeposited back into the car.

The stunned family drove home, with most of the event shrouded inamnesia. They recalled only a powerful light hitting the car, the engineturning off and a slight floating sensation. Their next memory was the lightturning off, the car engine turning on and six hours had passed. It was atypical missing time encounter.

Years later, as an adult, Jack bit down on an impacted wisdom tooth.This caused a flood of memories to burst forth. Jack suddenly recalledeverything that happened.

In most respects, Jack experienced the typical abduction scenario. Herecalled being taken aboard onto the craft. He was laid out on a table andexamined. They poked at his feet, probed inside his mouth. Jack is unableto recall the appearance of the beings, only that they were short andincredibly scary-looking.

Investigators’ have long noticed that UFOs often hover over electricpower lines, as if they were drawing electricity into their craft. Jack is thefirst abductee to witness this exact procedure from the perspective of insidethe ET craft.

After the examination, Jack was floated off the table and into anotherroom. The beings then placed him in a strange device which allowed him toview the procedure. Says Jack, “We went straight up above the fog. I couldlook out. The next thing, I was down in this thing. It was like a little cleardiamond-thing on the bottom of [the craft.] I’m in this thing and there arelike bungee cords on me. I sat in this clear diamond-shape – actuallysuspended, it almost felt like bungee cords, but I could see everythingaround. I got a 360-degree view. I could look everywhere. We drop backdown and we’re by my farm. We’re literally down in the pasture above thisditch. And there are some big high voltage power lines, heavy-duty powerlines through there. You can just feel the electricity coming off.“Well as we dropped down to this thing, whatever the clear thing Iwas in, in the bottom, kind of got smaller. It was kind of like more of aconfined space. It seemed wide open to me before, and yet I was enclosed,in kind of like plastic or glass.”

Jack was in awe. It felt like he was dangling below the craft with aperfect view of everything around. The room he was in seemed to designspecifically for observation. In fact, the whole room would swivel towardswhatever direction he looked. “In places it didn’t move at all, like if I justwanted to look one way, it just stayed there. But if I turned, it would moveall over. But if I just stopped and looked one way, it would stop and lookone way.”

At this point, the procedure began. “[They] were explaining to mewhat they were doing. I don’t know what it was, but we went up to thepower lines. And after we got back down, that little thing I was in seemed tokind of shrink up inside. [There were] four rotating things on each side ofthis thing – the diamond or triangle or whatever it was – there were fourlights that started spinning around. And I could see them from where Iwas….And I saw all those beams suck all together, come into one big beamand hit the power pole, sucking the electricity out of it. And these were like,I mean, LIGHTS! They all focused into one and they started suckingelectricity out of the power poles. I can’t describe it but I could literally feelit going through my body.

“I remember being cold. That’s when they sucked up the electricity.That is the most vivid part of the whole thing. We were up above it, atelephone pole, maybe two telephone pole lengths above it. And all thoselights focusing into one super bright light – just pshew! Just literally seeingthe electricity coming out of there, and feeling it. It was just like it drainedeverything, just took it all.

“Another thing, when I was up in that thing, we were above the fog,just kind of floating above this fog. And when they went to go suck theelectricity out of the power lines, that fog just got out of the way. It justopened wide up, just shew! – got out of the way, and I could see crystalclear.

“Another thing, I remember my teeth kind of hurting when it wassucking that stuff up. Just like when you're chewing on aluminum foil. Iremember feeling like, ‘Hurry up, get this thing over with.’”While Jack recalls several other events, it was the above incidentwhich remains the most memorable. As can be seen, the aliens seem to haveintentions beyond just an abduction and physical examination.

Taken to an Underground Base

The standard abduction scenario usually involves a person being takeninside a UFO and examined by gray-type extraterrestrials. But again, thisscenario is not as common as many might believe. Consider the followingcase, in which a young man was abducted, not by gray-type Ets, but bypraying-mantis-type Ets. Nor was he taken inside a UFO. In fact, herecalled being taken to an apparent underground base!In 1967, twelve-year-old, Paul Nelson (pseudonym) was visiting theisland of Catalina with his parents. Also along was Paul’s best friend,Michael (pseudonym.) The two boys decided to go inside their boat andread some new comic books. Suddenly, however, they both experienced anepisode of missing time. Their next memory was of waking up the nextmorning. While Paul was unable to convince his parents that anythingunusual had happened, both Paul and his friend knew that the event wasstrange.

Two weeks later, Paul was alone in his Reseda, California home whenhe had another strange experience. He was alone in his room when the doorbegan to rattle. He jumped up and threw it open. To his shock, he saw theshadow of a small figure running down the hallway. He chased after it, butfound nothing.

Paul didn’t know how to explain these experiences and didn’t connectit to the UFO phenomenon. However, afterwards he developed an interest inUFOs and began to read up on the subject.

Many years later, he grew up, married, became a doctor and had twochildren. Then he had a UFO sighting of a distant object in the daytime sky.This renewed his interest in UFOs. He began reading about the missing timeaspect of UFO encounters when he realized that he had experienced missingtime.

Intrigued, he eventually underwent hypnosis to recover his lostmemories. Having read about UFOs, he expected to find that he had afrightening encounter, during which he would be examined by gray-type Ets,aboard a UFO using highly technological equipment. Instead, it was nothinglike this.

As Paul underwent the regression, his first surprise was that he wasnot aboard a UFO, but instead appeared to be in an underground base. SaysPaul, “I was taken to a round-walled room. It seemed to me moreunderground than it did onboard a ship. The walls had kind of rock-likefacet to them. And I was on a table…Yeah, rock-like walls rather thanmetallic craft-type walls. It gave the impression that I was in a cavern[rather] than in a ship…It was more of an underground feeling that’s true.That is a little anomalous.”

Under hypnosis, Paul recalled his friend, Michael nearby, also beingexamined. His next surprise was that the beings were what he expected.Says Paul, “The beings weren’t the typical grays, they were more the‘Praying Mantis’ type, as I later understood. The eyes were slightly biggerthan what is seen in the typical small gray, and a little more insectoidlike…They wore tight-fitting uniforms, I believe. There was even a color tothem, but I can’t remember what the color was…tight-fitting jump-suit likethings. I think there was one in that bunch that had a tunic-type thing, morelooser fitting over it. I couldn’t tell how tall they were because they wereover me and I was on my back. So I couldn’t give you the exact height.They didn’t look particularly tall though.”

Yet another surprise was the type of machinery in the room. Havingread a good deal about UFOs, Paul expected again to see complexequipment. Instead, it all seemed amazingly primitive. Says Paul, “Themachines looked like typical military-type computer consoles rather thanalien-looking machines. There were lights and buttons. Well, I don’t knowif they were buttons, but areas that seemed to be for pushing. Colored lights– I can’t remember what color off the top of my head.”

Paul recalled a very short examination, but otherwise, nothingfrightening happened. Never did he feel any fear. “I don’t remember beingparticularly scared about the whole thing. In fact, I was a little intrigued byit. I don’t remember anything painful occurring.”

Conclusions

As the above cases show us, it can be extremely difficult to categorizea UFO experience. While there are definite patterns, encounters are asindividual as the people who have them. Witnesses, as a rule, experience awide variety of events beyond the abduction and examination. I amcurrently working with several people whose experiences with ETs aretypically atypical. One case involves a southern California woman who hashad multiple encounters with gray-type ETs. She has several witnesses andphysical evidence to support the veracity of her encounters, which havemoved beyond the standard missing-time abductions and examinations andevolved into fully-conscious encounters during which she has been healed ofvarious ailments, has been taught how to heal, and has been given otherspiritual information. She reports that the grays are very loving andemotional.​Another case involves a lady who has had multiple encounters withpraying-mantis-type aliens. Her encounters have not been benevolent; herhealth has suffered as a result. However, on a few occasions, the aliens toldher extremely personal information which proved conclusively to her thatthey were very concerned with her life. They not only showed that they hadbeen watching her during her entire childhood, but they also gave her aseries of predictions, several of which have already come true. Some of theinformation was so personal, that the witness refused to even discuss it.While abductions and examinations appear to be the single mostcommon factor, there are a vast number of experiences beyond this. Again,the conclusion is inescapable that extraterrestrials have a deep in humanity.Why else would they take the time to fix someone’s motorcycle, healsomeone of carpel-tunnel syndrome or dangle somebody below their craftshow how they siphon electricity from power lines?These are only a few of the cases you will find in the book ExtraterrestrialVisitations: True Accounts of Contact.
